Modern Style Meets the Stars, Sun and Moon

When it comes to modern interior design, sometimes it pays to let the heavens be your guide! In fact, star, sun and moon motifs are making a big impact in the realm of decor, especially decor with a Bohemian vibe. Blogger Justina Blakeney of The Jungalow uses the term “Cosmic Bohemian” to describe a design style that combines Boho flair with star and moon motifs. There is indeed something interesting about blending earthy items with heavenly themes. In today’s post we shamelessly revel in celestial style, rounding up an array of cosmic creations that represent modern design at its finest…

Inspired by the Sun

The majority of the items featured in today’s post (and all of the products in this section) come from Urban Outfitters, as this brand offers a wide array of celestial-themed items. In fact, UO is helping to lead the pack when it comes to Boho style with a cosmic twist. This Le Soleil Art Print from Merrick Angle of Double Merrick has a fabulous retro-modern feel:

It may not be a replica of the sun, but this Fringe Wall Hanging evokes the warmth of the sun and its rays. Bronze-toned metal is the material of choice:

We love a good wall decal, don’t you?! This Walls Need Love Sunset Beach Wall Decal celebrates the beauty of the sunset over the water. Plus, it’s made from repositionable vinyl, which means it’s easy to move if you want to try it in a different location!
